Buckingham Town v Stony Stratford

Andy Bone writes:
Buckingham Town maintained their good start to the FG Watts season when a young side guided them to an impressive 149-run victory.

Chris Board led the way and finished undefeated on 99 not out and shared an opening stand of 109 with his Skipper Rob Large, who made 80 runs.

Youth player Jonny Cater (35) continued his good progress with the bat, while Jeetan Patel chipped in with 68 not out, as Town posted 306 for 2.

In reply, Town's young bowlers performed with aplomb with Ben Stafford's eight-over spell collecting 2 for 34, while Russell Thompson and Vish Valambhia picked up a wicket each as Town ran out convincing winners.
